1LORD, I have so many persecutors! Many are rising up against me!1A psalm of David when he fled from his son Absalom. LORD, how my foes increase! There are many who attack me.
2Many are saying about me, "God will never deliver him!" Interlude2Many say about me," There is no help for him in God." Selah
3But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.3But You, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts up my head.
4I cry aloud to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. Interlude4I cry aloud to the LORD, and He answers me from His holy mountain. Selah
5I lie down and sleep, I wake up, because the LORD sustains me.5I lie down and sleep; I wake again because the LORD sustains me.
6I will not fear multitudes of people, who set themselves against me on every side.6I am not afraid of the thousands of people who have taken their stand against me on every side.
7Arise, LORD! Deliver me, my God! For you strike the jaw of all my enemies, and you break the teeth of the wicked.7Rise up, LORD! Save me, my God! You strike all my enemies on the cheek; You break the teeth of the wicked.
8Deliverance comes from the LORD! May your blessing be on your people. Interlude8Salvation belongs to the LORD; may Your blessing be on Your people. Selah
